Your Old Pinterest Pins Might Deserve a Second Chance


THE CONTENT MAVEN

Hi Reader!

Happy Friday!

Can we talk about those Pinterest Pins sitting in your account doing absolutely nothing? You know the ones.

You spent time designing them, writing descriptions, choosing the perfect boards, and then... crickets.

It's tempting to delete them and start fresh.

But here's your friendly Friday reminder: Not every piece of content needs to perform immediately to be valuable. Pinterest works differently from Instagram, and those older Pins might still have some life in them!

I wrote a quick guide about when you should keep an old Pin, when it's worth updating, and when deleting it actually makes sense.

And if you've been feeling discouraged by your Pinterest analytics lately, don't let a few quiet Pins convince you that all your hard work is wasted.

Sometimes a little patience and a few thoughtful changes go a long way.

Have a wonderful weekend!

We're talking podcasts, interviews, longer conversations, and even episodic content. And the best part? Instagram is exploring ways to connect shorter Reels to those longer videos. Some creators are...

Instagram followers and owning your audience

THE CONTENT MAVEN Hi Reader! I've been thinking about Instagram followers lately. And considering how much fun I've been having creating Reels and sharing my everyday life, you might be surprised by where this is going. lol I LOVE Instagram. I love the people I've connected with, the conversations, and yes, watching that follower count grow. But I've also been thinking about what happens when we build an entire audience on a platform we don't control. Actually, I'm always thinking about that....
